Second Unitarian Church, Gothic Revival church in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn, US.
The Second Unitarian Church stood as a brick structure on Clinton Street, featuring stained glass windows and a Louis C. Tiffany angel mosaic.
Built between 1857 and 1858 under architect Jacob Wrey Mould's direction, the church operated until 1924 when it merged with the First Unitarian Congregation.
The congregation supported progressive causes, with member Mary White Ovington co-founding the NAACP and the church participating in abolitionist movements.
The former church location now serves the community as Cobble Hill Park, following the building's demolition in 1962.
The Brooklyn Daily Eagle in 1887 noted Clinton Street, where the church stood, as 'a highway of churches' due to multiple religious buildings.
